Bend Test: The Moment of Truth
The real shock came when the iPhone was put through the bend test. Despite its titanium frame, the iPhone 15 Pro Max’s back panel cracked during the test. However, it should be noted that the glass did not shatter completely, indicating a certain level of durability. Apple, ever the forward-thinker, made the back glass modular, making replacements easier and more affordable at ₹14,800 (approximately $200), as opposed to ₹37,000 (around $500).
EverythingApplePro, another YouTube channel, also conducted a drop test from waist height. Surprisingly, both the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max did not survive this initial test. This could be attributed to the use of titanium, but more tests are needed for a conclusive verdict.
